Just to be sure you know this, the Hamilton Co Genealogical Society
did an index to all the Declarations for Naturalization in the
Hamilton Co., courts. Have you checked that?

Many of the Germans in Cincinnati, originally went to Indiana or
northern Kentucky before stopping in Cincinnati.

The University of Cincinnati Archives is the Ohio Regional Depository
for all South Western Ohio counties. You may want to contact them.
The Federal Court naturalizations are at the National Archives in
Chicago.

I hope that helps.
